    He's on vacation and I need a bushing adaptor set asap –*anyone have one lying around that they didn't use – or are not planning to install for a while?

    I'm on a huge time crunch prepping a GT4 vintage car with a massive approaching deadline. So if anyone's got one, I'll buy it and you can buy another one from Verrel when he returns.

    Thanks.

    Yikes - so many "typos"–*what happened to the "edit" button?

    Anyway, just to put a finer point on some of my tortured verbiage above – I'm trying get my long-stalled GT4 vintage race car project jumpstarted by prepping it for the upcoming FCA Monterey track days. I was hoping to use the existing Konis and suspension bushings but they were in worse shape than I realized so we installed the Superformance uprated bushing kit I luckily already had on hand. But then I had to order up the various QA1 parts from Summit, but I missed ordering Verrel's bushing kit by about an hour (he was out the door to a vacation!). And my schedule requires getting these shocks installed asap.

    So, if anyone is in the opposite situation than me – you ordered a Verrel bushing kit but your project is static right now, I would be GREATLY appreciative if I could buy your set and you could then buy a new set from Verrel after he returns. And since having to hassle with packing them up and shipping them off, I will of course cover the cost of not just the adapters and your shipping costs, but also a handling fee that would buy you a very nice bottle of red (or white). Johnny Walker Blue?

    So, I'm in a bind here and the clock is ticking. And after the FCA event, the car will be actively compete in vintage race events – one of the few Ferraris actually running in vintage club racing in the whole country (not counting one-off events like Monterey). So it's kind of a shot in the arm for all GT4 owners! And you –*yes you – can help! (...that last bit said with appropriate preacher voice…)

    The alternative will be to just go out and get some fabricated, but it would nice to avoid that if possible, since Verrel's parts are tested and true.

    Thanks!
